There is definitely still one over in that area. Saw a parked cop car around there yesterday near an opening in the tree line.

Those of us that have Brightspeed after being with Mediacom or ATT for years feel very blessed for the upgrade.

All the providers at Mercy Psychiatry are good, especially Dr. Hoyt. The key to getting in quicker is to make an appointment and then ask to be put on the cancellation list.

The shelters are packed with pits and pit mixes. I think part of the problem is people adopting these dogs and not having any sense of how to judge a dog’s temperament. I’ve known pits with high prey drives and I’ve known pits who never get off the couch. People want to make broad assumptions about the breed, but temperament varies within the breed, as with all breeds.
But people are absolutely correct that because these dogs are so strong, that the consequences of them having an aggressive temperament are huge. I think what people mean by “irresponsible owners” is owners who don’t train their dogs, exercise them, keep them secure, etc. Although part of the problem is that pits aren’t very smart and they’re not super easy to train beyond the basics.
I don’t know what the answer is. It’s tragic how many of these dogs get surrendered/dumped because people don’t know how to handle them. But we can’t have them running around attacking people either.

IVE BEEN SAYING THE SAME THING.
It's like they don't even care either. They don't walk faster or even try to avoid the cars at all, almost like they want to be hit.

I wasn't wondering, I already knew it was going to be pit bulls.

But it won't attack with the same force as a pit bull.

I think I’m going to skip it. We’ll be going to New York City next year, I think and we can have it then.

Jordan valley’s Behavioral Health department is a literal joke. They have 30 minute “sessions” for $25, with a nurse in an exam room. Oh, and it’s really only 20 min bc they’re consistently behind always. Made that mistake once and only fucking once.

I see a lot congregate by the Veterans Coming Home Center downtown near the courthouse I’d ask around there and I’d ask the Homeless there, it seems pretty safe during the day, good hunting I hope you find him.

Cool story. I used to live in Willard. Dogs were always a weird problem. I had a pug and he was built. I mean like bulldog wide. Got him for free at Casey’s when it was raining. He hopped in the car and then he was mine. Super cool dog with his woo woos. Kept him in a fenced yard. Home insurance people decided to do a “check”. It was my shitbird neighbor though. She said “Is he dangerous?” Huh? Look at him. He is blind now and just wanders around the yard and barks at what he might hear, as he is going deaf too. Later after that, we had neighbors with boxers, and I love boxers. We had a litter of kittens and the neighbors dog jumped the fence to get to the kittens. I was letting them play and do kitten things. I ended up whooping the shit out the dog with a tball bat. Fucking assholes.

Pedestrians are supposed to walk against traffic, but H highway is one of the worst roadways to walk. Vehicles are going 55+mph, there's barely any or no shoulder at all, lots of bridges and low spots with water that produce insane amounts of fog at times. Those crazies that walk to their cult church on the weekends have become a real problem, they walk with traffic and sometimes two abreast. Rarely, I'll see someone jogging or cycling on H as well, fuck those people too.

Edited to fix my mistake. They were walking WITH traffic, not against like I said. They were walking away from us as we came up behind
I have called and reported a few out on H highway when they were walking in the road, with traffic, at midnight. I damn near took them out.

Yeah, there’s always a problem with that. Nearly hit a couple people walking their dog the other night because they were both dressed in dark clothing - if the dog hadn’t had a white belly it would have been a much closer call.

Now that i think about it, I may not know where any homeless camps are but there's a church on the North side of town that feeds the homeless every Sunday in exchange for the usual "we feed you while you listen to us preach". You might be able to ask the church if they've seen him or be able to hang up that poster there. The church is called Eben Ezer Romanian Assembly.

Between the pedestrians wearing dark clothes and darting in and out of traffic, and the cars driving with no headlights, it's becoming like Frogger out there.
